The Question Is . . . Who's Fault Is It?

It's often very convenient to blame others when people suddenly find it necessary to vacate your presence.

There are often very good warning signs to assist you in finding out who's fault it really is such as; If you find yourself constantly talking about people behind their backs to others . . . who’s fault is it?

Seeing Past Our Differences

It often becomes a challenge to get beyond offenses when we do not discipline our flesh and submit ourselves according to God's wisdom. Let's face it, we cannot truthfully walk in love, unless we learn to forgive swiftly. If we do not forgive swiftly, then we will never be able to find common ground in getting past offenses. We cannot claim to be a lover of all people, and not have forgiveness in our hearts. The word clearly states in Mark 11:25 "If you hold anything against anyone forgive him so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins". God didn't make exceptions for any of us. We cannot continue to manipulate scriptures to justify our ignorance, but we must use sound judgement about how we deal with offenses, so that our actions do not provoke others to act like us. #ForgivenessAndLove!!!   Visit My Website Today

The Supreme Court Decision On Marriage Equality

For countless amount of years we've seen same gender loving people operate freely in the church as if there was nothing wrong with it. From the praise teams, to the musicians, the choir, usher board, and even the pulpit itself, but rarely anyone did anything to address the situation. Quite frankly, lately it seems as if the church has difficulties addressing certain ungodly lifestyles in order to not risk losing some of its congregation. Now it seems that people are all upset because the Supreme Court has given same gender loving people a right and freedom to marry one another. Did you really expect the world to regulate a sin in which we ourselves as Christians has tolerated amongst ourselves? The world system believes in marriage equality for all no matter what gender you choose, but we are not of this world, we are in this world, therefore we cannot continue to have blind eyes to certain sin because of its sensitive nature and then cry wolf when it becomes an acceptable norm. We have to set the example through our teachings. People do have a right to live their life on earth however they choose, we have no authority to violate that, but we do have an obligation as representatives of God's Kingdom to teach and speak against anything that goes against the foundation of His righteousness. Let's face it, the world system is not the only one responsible for this decision.   Visit My Website Today

It's Time To Refocus

We cannot continue to claim to be Christians and constantly war against one another. It becomes a sad day when the church becomes the place to air out ones differences. Where is God in the mist of confusion when your opinions extract offense from your brother? Are we not shamed as Christians? Fool yourself not, because no one wins in such warfare, we tarnish the very position we are obligated through His righteousness to uphold. As Christians we are held at a higher standard, and must always show restraint in the mist of adversity. We must sacrifice our fleshly nature and revert back to His words for instructions. We cannot claim to be holy when things are going good, but through separation and disagreements we act like untrained thugs who have no respect of Kingdom requirements. Life is too short and there's work to be done. It's time to refocus saints!!!!  Visit My Website Today

Take Charge Over Your Existence

There's truly nothing wrong with allowing people to lead you or be an influence in your life, but you have to be cautious in following people without knowing their true character. It's important to never allow anyone to influence or dictate your relationship with others. This is often a warning sign that shouldn't be taken lightly. It's often wise to set boundaries for your life, never hesitating to hold others accountable of the way they respect you and treat you, no matter what type of relationships you have with them, whether it be family, friends, associates or any type of authority. Life should always be prioritize with structure, First God, next Family, and everything else fall behind it. Never allow your life to be driven by control freaks. Take charge over your existence!!   Visit My Website Today

Learning To Serve The Least Of

I recently had a pastor contacted me, looking for advice about using technology to reach and serve International communities, but when I asked him what model his church uses to serve the local communities surrounding him, he had no answer to my question. This in term really puzzled me. 
We often see a lot of churches striving to go International, but make no attempt to service the local communities surrounding them. The question we must always ask ourselves is; How is it can we as churches provide structure to an International community when our own communities never feel the impact of our existence? Radio, television, Internet and social media, grants us the greatest opportunity to reach a lot of people, but until we actually learn to be a great servant of a few, we will never fully understand the responsibility of serving a multitude of people. We have to take advantage of the opportunities in our own backyard, simply because the communities surrounding us is often our greatest training ground to learning how to become a great servant. Of course, reaching the world is appealing, but reaching our communities is a necessary reality we must quickly address.   Visit My Website Today

NO INNOCENCE

It really amazes me how we sometimes as Christians often uses scriptures to justify our ideology and misguided treatment of others, but yet seldom use it as guidance to find common ground and peace without confrontation. Only an army of ignorance fools will rise up against a wounded village, but true righteousness, understands how to carefully monitor and control their behavior. It's truly unnecessary that each person must destroy one's reputation in order to prove their innocence. It's important to understand this . . . If no peace can be established in the mist of confrontation, THERE IS NO INNOCENCE amongst either party involved  Visit My Website Today!!
